I'm heading out the door, but for those checking in - here is what is going on - the Career transactions section was removed because a) it is already stated in the article in the relevant sections and b) does not enhance the article. No other athlete article that i can think of has anything resembling this. If any other article does, it is in the VAST minority. Juan Miguel Fangio| ►Chat 08:25, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Jmfangio, I didn't understand your explanation (in edit history) for removing the link I added today. It was the New York Times article referencing Wilkinson's conviction for striking his pregnant girlfriend. Since the Times is a good source, and guilt was found (as opposed to frivolous charges dropped later), and because the conviction is not mentioned in any other part of the article, I thought the link was kosher. You wrote "removed link - not an el - can be used as a source to present a neutral presentation of circumstances however" What is "el" -- sorry, I'm not a very experienced Wikipedian. Does that stand for essential link? Thanks in advance. tharsaile 23:24, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
That was a good page to read, thank you. What about a mention of the conviction in the article instead of a link? A lot of celebrities and companies appear to have Controversy sections in their wikipages. tharsaile 00:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC) ..because to avoid all mention of it would seem more like censorship than healthy deletionism. Oh, what the hell, I'll put it right in the article. After all, by your own words, it "can be used as a source to present a neutral presentaion of circumstances." I'll just need to add those circumstances. tharsaile 00:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Yeah sounds good to me.► Chris Nelson 00:52, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. The referenced article is a brief one. Perhaps someone could help paraphrase it better than I just did. tharsaile 00:56, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Unfortunately, another editor is warring, so i'm no longer going to make edits to this article until the situation is resolved. Juan Miguel Fangio| ►Chat 19:43, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
